Pina Colada Salad

 ***This great summer salad is from my archives***

 

This salad was a hit with the “zoo” everyone loved it.  Which is really no surprise because it is very, very sweet, so sweet in fact it would do nicely as a summertime dessert or snack on a hot afternoon.  It is very different from anything I have served or eaten before, I am excited to make it again.

First we will start with the dressing
Our ingredients are:

1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup pina colada drink mix
1 1/2 cup sour cream

add all ingredients together and whisk, then chill in the refrigerator while preparing the body of the salad.

For the rest of the salad we will need:

1 cup cashews
2 cups craisins
1 cup diced celery
2 cups diced, fresh, pineapple

Toss the ingredients together in a large bowl, then add the dressing and serve cold.
